Title:
  95packagekit sleep hook weirdly installed in a subdirectory is ignored

Status in packagekit package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The 95packagekit sleep hook provided by packagekit is installed in a subdirectory: 
      /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/95packagekit/95packagekit

  This has two effects:

  1    the hook is not run;

  2    owing to a bug in pm-utils, separately reported, the previous
  hook is run for a second time instead.

  If #1 was actually the desired effect, the hook should have been
  stored as /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/95packagekit~ or just omitted.

  If the hook is manually installed as /usr/lib/pm-
  utils/sleep.d/95packagekit, it runs as expected (although the nature
  of the hook's operation means that it may have no obvious effect).

  This issue was observed in 14.04, packagekit 0.8.12-1ubuntu5;
  apparently was OK in 12.04. A packaging bug seems to have appeared
  when 95packagekit was updated in revision 1.2.10.

  Additionally, the hook 95packagekit is incorrectly numbered according
  to the pm-utils HOWTO.hooks convention and should apparently be eg
  45packagekit.
